The Whole Truth: The Healthier Chocolate?

 

Here’s the whole truth, we love chocolates, we all do. They’re a treat: to the eyes, to the mouth, to bad days, to good days, to celebrate, you get the gist. But there is also another whole truth:  that consuming a lot of chocolates might not be good for your teeth or your body, mainly because of the large amount of sugar that is present.

I have always shared and been curious about alternatives to chocolates as you can see in my Vegan Chocolate in Nepal , The Healthier Version of Ice-cream? or Snack Bars : Your Ultimate Hiking Companion. I have always been open to healthier options because I do not believe and have never believed that healthier alternatives cannot taste good and it was this very perspective that made me want to try The Whole Truth (TWT) chocolates, and that is in fact, when I struck a goldmine.

TWT presents the healthier chocolates with no sugar and no preservatives. Their solution? Chocolates sweetened with dates. It was what caught my eye when they popped up on my Instagram one day.


They had milk chocolates, dark chocolates and in so many flavors like hazelnut, orange peel, sea salt and almonds. I was curious, would chocolates sweetened with dates taste different? Would the texture be different? Would I like the taste? Would it be as good? There was only one way to find out.

I was more than excited when my order arrived, mainly because of their packaging: it is gorgeous. It tells you all about what happens at the TWT factory and how much effort is put in every single bar of chocolate. And not only the making of the chocolate, much thought and effort has also been put in each package of chocolate.

Unlike chocolate bars that come in regular rectangular pieces that you can break, TWT chocolates come in all different portions that read XXL, XL,L,M,S, and XS. The idea is that the portions are when you need a bigger doses of chocolates or when you just need a little snack; not all cravings are same, so why should the portions be? It’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen, both the chocolate and the idea and they are unlike any other chocolate I have ever had. And coming from a fellow chocolate lover who has consumed a massive number of chocolates in various time periods of her life, believe me this is a huge compliment coming from me.

The hazelnut chocolate that we had answered was everything it promised to be. It is the perfect amount of smooth, the perfect amount of sweetness, not too sweet but just sweet enough to make it not too bitter. The generous amount of hazelnuts engrossed in the chocolate made it that much better.

You should check out their Instagram page : thewholetruthfoods  and their website : https://linkin.bio/thewholetruthfoods , chocolates are the only thing they make, they also make protein bars, peanut butter, chocolate spreads and they are only growing.

Rajamati

I think we’ve all heard the song of Rajamati growing up. It is so popular that many people in Nepal claim this is the only Newari song that they have heard. The song was written some 200 years back. The first few lines go like this, which I’m sure you must have heard of, unless you’ve been living under a rock: Rājamati kumati, jike wasā pirati Hāya bābā Rājamati-chā Rājamati mabila dhāsā Kāshi wane tela bubā Hayā biu Rājamati-chā. San dhāsā kuli kuli, mikhā dhāsā bālā bālā Sakumi yā mhyāy machā lā Khwā dhāsā tuyu khwā, khwālay niga tee du Tāhā Nani yā Rājamati-chā. It is said to be written by or rather from the perspective of a man who was infatuated and in awe of the beauty of Rajamati. He describes with great admiration: her hair, her eyes, her complexion and the little moles on her face. However it is unknown who the writer of this beautiful song is. The song rushed into popularity after it was played in England in 1850 when Prime Minister Jung Bahadur Rana vi...

Best Places for Breakfast in Kathmandu

The only reason I love sleep, more than the reason that, well, it’s sleep, is that it’s like time travelling to breakfast.  Yeah, no kidding. Breakfast, the most important meal of the day. Whoever named that meal breakfast, was straightforward. I don’t know who named lunch and dinner, but the breakfast guy? He cut in straight to the point, didn’t he? Because breakfast is literally breaking your 8-10 hours fast. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper, they say. So, you don’t really want to compromise on breakfast now, do you? Now, this is no backlashing, but in many restaurants around town, the most breakfast things they have on the menu are omelet and toast. Yeah, I was disappointed too. There’s this restaurant in Mangal Bazar, where my best friend and I met up early morning. We decided to have breakfast. The restaurant overlooks the courtyard so it’s a beautiful place to talk over a cup of coffee or tea. She and I ordered a cheese ...
